As a luxury crossover utility, the 2013 Acura MDX puts passenger comfort above rugged off-road ability. Its interior, with space for up to seven, is as comfortable and accommodating as those of full-size truck-based SUVs. The MDX's car underpinnings allow it to handle better than those truck-based large SUVs and Acura's "super handling" all-wheel drive system aids stability in both dry and wet weather as well as while also handling light off-road tasks.
